For this problem, you would need to use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction).

First, start with the parentheses. In the parentheses, you would start with 8 x 54

8 x 54 = 432

Then, subtract 432 from 92.

92 - 432 = -340

From there, do 10 multiplied by -340 (the parentheses indicate multiplication).


10 x -340 = -3400

You are now left with 15 - -3400 - 6.

Now, subtract from left to right.

15 - - 3400 = 15 + 3400 = 3415

3415 - 6 = 3409

3409 is the answer.
